Stephen Colbert audience boos Trump for invading | TV Shows

During the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the political commentator took a stance on President Donald Trump’s handling of the occasions that transpired due to the capturing of the late Renee Nicole Good in Minnesota.

Good was lately fatally shot by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer in Minneapolis. In the viral video footage, two ICE brokers ordered her to exit her vehicle, which was obstructing an intersection. After Good reversed and began to flip, another ICE agent arrived and fired at her 3 times. With the FBI doing a complete inquiry into the capturing, protests and vigils have been held in a number of cities in the United States since the aftermath of the capturing.

Colbert began off, “We now turn to our friends out in Minneapolis, who are still reeling from last week’s shooting by an ICE agent of Renee Good, which is just the latest and most horrifying abuse of that great city by Homeland Security.”

“Right now, more than 2,000 federal immigration agents are in Minnesota, and Trump is planning to send around 1,000 more,” Colbert claimed. “So he’s in invading!” he said, which induced the audience to boo at the top of their lungs.

“So he’s clearly invading Minnesota,” the late-night host continued after the upset audience calmed down. He went on, referring to the president, “Has anyone told him that they don’t have oil?”

“Because the best he’s going to get is 50 million barrels of cream of mushroom soup,” Colbert jested.

The Colbert audience was not the only one that was vocal against President Trump. During the matchup between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Cleveland Cavaliers, basketball followers at Target Center made their emotions crystal clear as they voiced their anger over ICE’s presence in Minneapolis following the tragic death of Renee Nicole Good. Although Trump’s administration has labeled Good a “domestic terrorist,” metropolis officers preserve she was lawfully monitoring ICE operations when she was killed.

Before the tip-off at the Timberwolves’ home contest against the Cavaliers on Thursday, a second of silence was held to bear in mind Good. As Target Center’s lights had been lowered during the tribute, one attendee yelled, “Go home ICE,” which sparked cheers from other sports activities followers throughout the world.

At a news convention, Minneapolis’ Democratic mayor, Jacob Frey, expressed his outrage at the capturing incident.

“We’ve dreaded this moment since the early stages of this ICE presence in Minneapolis,” Frey said. “They are not here to cause safety in this city. What they are doing is not to provide safety in America. What they are doing is causing chaos and distrust.”

“Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bulls–t. This was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody dying, getting killed.”

Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch also voiced his dismay before the sport against Cleveland, labeling the act of violence against Good an “unspeakable tragedy.”

“As we all know, our community has suffered yet another unspeakable tragedy,” Finch said. “We want to just convey our condolences and heartfelt wishes and prayers and thoughts to the families and loved ones and all of those that are greatly affected by what happened.”
